Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

CanadaThe resort is the best of several highly-rated resorts we visited in the area. Located on a beautiful cliff, with private beach access (via a lift). Very spacious, with multiple pools, garden and beach restaurants offering a variety of food, a nice water spa (available to ocean suites visitors), sport facilities (golf, tennis, etc.) and several kids playgrounds. The rooms were spacious, well-designed and comfortable. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. We enjoyed the place very much and would definitely come back.

United KingdomThe resort restaurants are a little over-priced and there isn't much choice. In years gone by the O'Grill restaurant was our favourite and the buffet style or a la carte menus were amazing. Sadly, the menu is now limited. Ideal for families with kids (there were a few families with pre-school age kids) and great for lunch but not much choice for our evening meal. If you like fish the local restaurants are absolutely superb.
Third stay at the Ocean Suites and Seventh stay at the Pine Cliffs Resort - safe to say we like it, a lot! We've stayed in all areas of the resort/different types of accommodation which are all wonderful however the Ocean Suites is now our choice. It's just lush - especially for adults. The rooms are cleaned every day with fresh towels and toiletries provided. The beach is lovely and the grounds are beautifully maintained and wonderful for a stroll however, for relaxing, we choose the pool area which is just perfect and peaceful. Of course, being able to travel outwith school holidays is a bonus. Breakfast is fabulous and not to be missed. The staff are wonderful, so helpful, nothing is too much trouble.

LithuaniaNot enough sunbeds at the beach, we did not manage to find enough sunbeds for our family during our stay so had to lay on the sand, which was not comfortable and was not expected on a 5 star resort. Also noted that a lot of sunbeds were reserved in advance by some guests but not been used. The golf course was overcrowded. We have played twice during our stay and were not able to start on the prebooked tee time.
The location and room were excellent, big selection of restaurants and great food. Staff was extremely helpful!

Belgium- indoor swimming pool was a bit cold and would have liked it better if there were more lanes - the children’s playground looked worn out, it definitely needs repair as there were screws sticking out
- clean and well maintained suite - fully equipped kitchen with very good quality pans etc -twice a day housekeeping -spacious and well equipped gym -very child-friendly or safe, you can see that the -architect or designer carefully thought of small details to make the resort safe for children e.g. short steps and furnitures with round edges in the room -very friendly and attentive staff (the staff at the open space even came to bring us cushions for our sun beds and the driver of the carts would always drive slowly or avoid approaching us when our daughter is walking or running) - the housekeeping staff are very friendly and also pays attention to what we prefer (such as only decaf caps) - magnificent views and good access to the beach

United KingdomThe service around the pool was slow. It took ages to find someone for drinks. The pool bar around the main pool did not open until midday. Upstairs above the seafood restaurant on the outdoor terrace closed around 5pm. This was a shame as it was the perfect spot for an early evening drink. Overpriced gazebos on beach.
The Ocean Suites were perfect. Spacious, bright, clean and comfortable. Beach was lovely.
